When I read books
I think of fun.
Entering the book and being the main character
but only for a day.
I think of
slaying drgons
fighting warriors
and of course, saving the beautiful princess from her castle surrounded by
HOT, BOILING
lava.
When I save her and do all of those other heroic things,
I go back home.
When I read books.

This piece has really inspired me to become a deeper reader and read more consistently. Without this poem I probably would not have et that goal.
